WEBVTT - Hour 1 - Greg Sankey (04-30-20) 0:00:00.640 --> 0:00:03.520 You are listening to the Dan Patrick Show on Fox 0:00:03.520 --> 0:00:06.360 Sports Radio. Made it to a Thursday. It's our one, 0:00:06.440 --> 0:00:09.200 Dan and the Dana's Dan Patrick Show. Just talking to 0:00:09.280 --> 0:00:11.959 Paulli since I have nobody else to talk to here 0:00:12.000 --> 0:00:15.120 in the Banqueve, but I was talking to Paully, and 0:00:15.320 --> 0:00:18.520 Paully goes, Just imagine if the Green Bay Packers a 0:00:18.560 --> 0:00:22.319 couple of weeks ago traded with the Houston Texans and 0:00:22.480 --> 0:00:24.880 they gave a second round draft pick to the Texans 0:00:24.880 --> 0:00:30.240 for DeAndre Hopkins, and let's say the Packers decided to 0:00:30.520 --> 0:00:33.879 move up in the draft and take a defensive lineman 0:00:34.400 --> 0:00:39.040 or maybe Cede Lamb. What would we be saying about 0:00:39.040 --> 0:00:42.440 the Green Bay Packers and Aaron Rodgers today. We wouldn't 0:00:42.479 --> 0:00:45.640 be saying anything other than, man, are they loaded and 0:00:45.720 --> 0:00:49.280 they are ready to go. Everybody wants to follow Kansas 0:00:49.320 --> 0:00:52.599 City's blueprint. Well you start with the quarterback, and how 0:00:52.640 --> 0:00:56.000 many teams have a Patrick Mahomes. The Packers have an 0:00:56.000 --> 0:00:59.960 older Patrick Mahomes and now they gave him track store 0:01:00.280 --> 0:01:03.560 on his team. They did supplement that defense made it 0:01:03.600 --> 0:01:06.680 better Chris Jones and was a godsend in the Super Bowl. 0:01:06.880 --> 0:01:10.560 But if Green Bay had DeAndre Hopkins and they drafted 0:01:10.600 --> 0:01:13.600 CD Lamb. Let's say we would look at the Green 0:01:13.640 --> 0:01:18.240 Bay Packers completely different than we are today. We're looking 0:01:18.240 --> 0:01:21.400 at this team as if thirteen and three was a mirage. 0:01:21.840 --> 0:01:24.240 They were lucky to do that. They're really a ten 0:01:24.319 --> 0:01:26.800 win team, maybe a nine win team. I think Vegas 0:01:26.840 --> 0:01:29.760 has the over under at nine or nine and a half. Hey, 0:01:29.800 --> 0:01:32.520 we got to start looking at the future. Hey, Aaron 0:01:32.600 --> 0:01:35.240 Rodgers is on the decline. If they went out and 0:01:35.280 --> 0:01:38.480 got DeAndre Hopkins and Cede Lamb, I'd love to know 0:01:38.560 --> 0:01:43.080 what Vegas would list them as Super Bowl contenders, because 0:01:43.080 --> 0:01:46.400 they would probably be right there with San Francisco as 0:01:46.440 --> 0:01:49.680 the team to beat in the NFC. As a result, 0:01:50.120 --> 0:01:53.640 we're talking about Aaron Rodgers, the lack of a relationship. 0:01:53.720 --> 0:01:56.400 They want to send a message. They're tired of his passive, 0:01:56.400 --> 0:02:00.720 aggressive mood. And here is Brett Farve yesterday on The 0:02:00.800 --> 0:02:05.920 Rich Eisen Show talking about the bridge burned in Green Bay. 0:02:06.240 --> 0:02:08.840 Green Bay's not going anywhere without Aaron Rodgers in the 0:02:08.880 --> 0:02:12.639 next few years. If he plays like we expected to play, 0:02:12.680 --> 0:02:15.840 they got a shot with or without a first round receiver. 0:02:16.240 --> 0:02:19.080 He's that good. So I would do all I could 0:02:19.200 --> 0:02:22.880 to not burn that bridge, and I don't think that 0:02:22.919 --> 0:02:25.040 they did that. I think that they burned a bridge 0:02:25.080 --> 0:02:28.720 that it's going to be hard to overcome. At some point. 0:02:29.040 --> 0:02:32.640 I think it will rear its ugly. Here that's Brett 0:02:32.639 --> 0:02:34.560 Farve on the Rich Eisen Show. Here's a couple of 0:02:34.560 --> 0:02:36.640 things that I took away from that. Now. I'm not 0:02:36.680 --> 0:02:39.240 surprised anything that Brett said. Brett said that he didn't 0:02:39.240 --> 0:02:42.120 think Aaron Rodgers ends his career in a Green Bay uniform, 0:02:42.280 --> 0:02:44.399 and I agree, I don't think he doesn't. I don't 0:02:44.400 --> 0:02:47.560 think that that's going to be possible. And Brett certainly 0:02:47.639 --> 0:02:50.760 understands this. Brett has been in touch with Aaron Rodgers. 0:02:50.960 --> 0:02:54.920 If I would have told you five years ago that 0:02:55.040 --> 0:02:58.440 Brett Farve would be an advisor to Aaron Rodgers, that 0:02:58.639 --> 0:03:01.600 Rodgers would be confided fighting and Brett Farve, you would 0:03:01.600 --> 0:03:04.680 have said, no, that's not going to happen. But that 0:03:04.960 --> 0:03:08.800 is what is happening. I also wondered, is Brett Farve 0:03:09.480 --> 0:03:13.200 sort of the mouthpiece for Aaron Rodgers right now with 0:03:13.200 --> 0:03:16.600 what Aaron feels and if he unloaded on Farv to say, hey, 0:03:16.639 --> 0:03:19.240 I get it, man, I get where you were, I 0:03:19.400 --> 0:03:22.280 get it, and you might be telling him something. So 0:03:22.320 --> 0:03:24.360 when Brett Farve goes on the rich eyes and Show, 0:03:24.800 --> 0:03:27.480 he might be saying, hey, this is just my opinion, 0:03:27.919 --> 0:03:31.400 but it might be my opinion with maybe a little 0:03:31.400 --> 0:03:35.360 bit of Aaron Rodgers in there. But yeah, just some 0:03:35.400 --> 0:03:38.680 things that I took away yesterday. Dan Orlovski of ESPN, 0:03:38.720 --> 0:03:42.600 the former NFL quarterback on Twitter yesterday, says, you tell me, 0:03:43.000 --> 0:03:47.800 Philip Rivers got Michael Pittman, Ben Roethlisberger got to Ebron 0:03:47.840 --> 0:03:52.640 and Claypool, Breeze got Sanders and Ruiz Ruiz the center 0:03:52.640 --> 0:03:58.680 out of Michigan. Brady got Gronk and Worf's, Rogers got 0:03:58.880 --> 0:04:05.480 Jordan Love and a pound the rock running back AJ Dillon. Yeah, 0:04:05.520 --> 0:04:07.880 and then Orlovski ends his tweet by saying, one of 0:04:07.880 --> 0:04:10.920 these doesn't belong with the other, and we know which 0:04:10.920 --> 0:04:13.720 one that is. Look, if they want to send a 0:04:13.760 --> 0:04:17.040 message you don't like Aaron Rodgers' attitude, We're going to 0:04:17.080 --> 0:04:19.760 see if we can. He's thirty six. Are you changing 0:04:19.800 --> 0:04:23.640 his attitude? Now? Aaron should have known if you're going 0:04:23.680 --> 0:04:27.400 to bring in Matt Lafleur, you know what his coaching 0:04:27.520 --> 0:04:31.919 style is. As a offensive coordinator in previous stops, and 0:04:32.080 --> 0:04:34.920 you can't be surprised at that. If you're going to 0:04:35.000 --> 0:04:38.919 bring in somebody who wants to run, who likes what 0:04:39.040 --> 0:04:42.520 Kyle Shanahan does in San Francisco, who likes what Sean 0:04:42.600 --> 0:04:46.080 McVay did with the Rams, then you can't be surprised 0:04:46.160 --> 0:04:48.440 when he comes in and says, I want to run 0:04:48.480 --> 0:04:50.880 the ball a little bit more here. We want to 0:04:50.880 --> 0:04:54.680 be more like San Francisco. Aaron didn't get along with 0:04:54.720 --> 0:04:57.960 Mike McCarthy. That's set up the scenario for the Packers 0:04:57.960 --> 0:05:00.240 to go what kind of team do we want to be? 0:05:00.680 --> 0:05:04.000 Even though you have invested one hundred million dollars in 0:05:04.080 --> 0:05:07.039 Aaron Rodgers. Here was the other thing that came to 0:05:07.120 --> 0:05:11.640 mind when I was thinking about this. It's different with 0:05:11.680 --> 0:05:16.000 the Packers because they don't have an owner. Imagine if 0:05:16.200 --> 0:05:20.719 Tom Brady goes to if he went to Bill Belichick, 0:05:21.240 --> 0:05:24.159 or he went to Robert Kraft. Like going to Robert Kraft, 0:05:24.920 --> 0:05:26.919 he can go to him and say, hey, you know what, 0:05:27.000 --> 0:05:29.360 I don't like what Bill's doing or how he treats me, 0:05:29.480 --> 0:05:31.720 or I want to have fun or I want to leave. 0:05:32.080 --> 0:05:35.159 You go to one person, Aaron Rodgers can't go to 0:05:35.200 --> 0:05:41.120 an owner in Green Bay, it's a board of directors stockholders. 0:05:41.640 --> 0:05:45.599 If you had an owner, would Aaron Rodgers then be 0:05:45.720 --> 0:05:47.560 able to take a little bit of the air out 0:05:47.600 --> 0:05:51.000 of this the tension that is there because Brady was 0:05:51.600 --> 0:05:55.599 able to do that. Brady went to the owner to say, 0:05:55.720 --> 0:06:01.560 I want Garoppolo traded, and they traded Garoppolo. They traded 0:06:01.560 --> 0:06:06.280 their future. Aaron Rodgers would go to ownership to say, 0:06:07.120 --> 0:06:11.200 give me a chance here, we're close, help me get 0:06:11.240 --> 0:06:13.720 me some weapons, Let's see what we can do. Why 0:06:13.760 --> 0:06:17.480 don't we have a Kansas City style offense in Green Bay? 0:06:17.960 --> 0:06:22.080 Give me a chance here. It's one person, his opinion, 0:06:22.720 --> 0:06:25.800 and that owner would have been there through the five 0:06:26.000 --> 0:06:29.120 and Aaron Rodgers era, so he would know, Hey, let's 0:06:29.160 --> 0:06:31.720 don't do what we did to five and do that 0:06:31.760 --> 0:06:34.520 to Aaron. Let's make sure that we give them one 0:06:34.520 --> 0:06:38.000 more chance here. And I'm not comparing Rodgers in farv 0:06:38.120 --> 0:06:41.480 because it's a little it's apples and oranges there. It's 0:06:41.480 --> 0:06:44.200 a little trickier because people are saying, wait a minute, 0:06:44.760 --> 0:06:47.159 did you have any problem with the packers drafting Aaron 0:06:47.240 --> 0:06:51.360 Rodgers when they had five? I did, yes, I did. 0:06:52.160 --> 0:06:55.160 I said, you got five at the end of his career, 0:06:55.400 --> 0:06:58.359 but still able to play a pretty high level. And 0:06:58.600 --> 0:07:01.120 I know what happens here. You go, hey, well it 0:07:01.160 --> 0:07:04.880 worked out, so therefore you know, if you're gonna look 0:07:04.920 --> 0:07:07.719 at the result of the strategy there, that's different. Here 0:07:08.240 --> 0:07:13.080 the strategy I didn't like. The result I loved, but 0:07:13.200 --> 0:07:16.680 that's the situation here. I don't. I'm on record saying 0:07:16.720 --> 0:07:19.800 I don't like trading up for a quarterback. If I'm 0:07:19.840 --> 0:07:22.720 paying my quarterback and he's still one of the top 0:07:22.760 --> 0:07:25.800 five quarterbacks in the league, we have a chance here. 0:07:26.040 --> 0:07:27.960 You're not as good as you think you are. You're 0:07:27.960 --> 0:07:30.840 not thirteen and three. You're a ten win team at best. 0:07:30.840 --> 0:07:35.280 In my opinion. Last year they were very fortunate, got 0:07:35.280 --> 0:07:39.240 in with a dominating team offensively and defensively, great offense, 0:07:39.360 --> 0:07:42.280 defensive line, and they got roughed up. But this year, 0:07:42.920 --> 0:07:46.080 I don't expect much out of the Packers. Oh, Aaron's upset. 0:07:46.320 --> 0:07:49.000 What's he gonna do? Is he gonna is he gonna 0:07:49.040 --> 0:07:53.880 throw to who? Exactly? Man, I'm really mad. I'm gonna 0:07:53.920 --> 0:07:56.480 be great this year. I think Aaron Rodgers says that 0:07:56.600 --> 0:08:00.840 every year. Yeah, point going back to what you said 0:08:00.920 --> 0:08:02.520 right at the bat about like if they would trade 0:08:02.520 --> 0:08:04.840 it for Hopkins, that would have been the kind of 0:08:05.840 --> 0:08:09.560 weapons Aaron Rodgers needs. He doesn't need a Yeah, see, 0:08:09.640 --> 0:08:12.120 Lamb will be great probably, and all these other guys 0:08:12.160 --> 0:08:13.960 would be great, And it would be symbolic to draft 0:08:14.120 --> 0:08:17.400 a wide receiver in the first round. But you can 0:08:17.440 --> 0:08:20.160 get Emmanuel Sanders who's thirty years old, or new Hopkins 0:08:20.160 --> 0:08:22.600 who's twenty eight, and they're ready to play another They're expensive, 0:08:22.600 --> 0:08:24.640 but that's what you do when you're thirteen and three. 0:08:24.680 --> 0:08:26.920 You have a great quarterback if you believe your team 0:08:27.040 --> 0:08:30.720 is thirteen and three. I think the Packers and look, 0:08:30.760 --> 0:08:32.720 I'll give the management credit if they look at this 0:08:32.720 --> 0:08:34.360 team and say, you know what, we're not a thirteen 0:08:34.400 --> 0:08:36.720 and three team. And you know what, Aaron has not 0:08:36.840 --> 0:08:42.160 had great years. You're comparing Aaron Rodgers to Aaron Rodgers. 0:08:42.800 --> 0:08:47.800 That's not a fair comparison. Aaron Rodgers was spectacular. What 0:08:47.960 --> 0:08:50.760 he did with interception to touchdown ratio, it's not even 0:08:50.800 --> 0:08:54.400 close how great he's been with that. And when you go, 0:08:54.480 --> 0:08:58.240 you know, he through twenty six touchdowns four interceptions. How 0:08:58.240 --> 0:09:02.520 many teams would take twenty six to four interceptions. I 0:09:02.559 --> 0:09:08.040 know the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, would Chicago Bears, would San 0:09:08.080 --> 0:09:11.720 Francisco forty nine ers? Would You can go down the 0:09:11.760 --> 0:09:14.240 list of teams that would say, wait, my quarterback's gonna 0:09:14.240 --> 0:09:17.680 throw only twenty six touchdowns but only four interceptions. I'll 0:09:17.720 --> 0:09:20.000 sign up for them. But they want to be a 0:09:20.080 --> 0:09:23.880 ball control offense. They bring in a running back, another 0:09:23.960 --> 0:09:26.600 running back to go along with Aaron Jones who had 0:09:26.640 --> 0:09:32.240 a wonderful year. You get an h back. Okay. I 0:09:32.400 --> 0:09:35.640 just wondered if if some if they had traded for 0:09:35.679 --> 0:09:38.560 DeAndre Hopkins and traded up in the draft for a weapon, 0:09:38.880 --> 0:09:42.760 how we would be viewing the Packers completely different? Guess boone? 0:09:44.400 --> 0:09:49.080 Whoa quarterback? News? Dan? Okay, give me a hint. A 0:09:49.240 --> 0:09:53.559 team is releasing a veteran quarterback. A team is releasing 0:09:53.720 --> 0:09:57.920 a veteran quarterback. Okay, you want a piece of this, Andrew, 0:09:57.960 --> 0:09:59.800 you want a piece of this. That's my hands, mclovin. 0:10:01.160 --> 0:10:03.840 Andy Dalton has been released. Andy Dalton has been released. 0:10:04.760 --> 0:10:07.480 Bengals are releasing quarterback Andy Dalton. Purse source. According to 0:10:07.480 --> 0:10:12.480 Adam Schefter, whew, how long before Andy Dalton is picked up? 0:10:13.040 --> 0:10:19.520 And where mclovin. Andy Dalton's your boyfriend problem. The Patriots 0:10:19.520 --> 0:10:22.160 have no cap room. I don't know how they get 0:10:22.160 --> 0:10:25.200 over that. Well, they brought in Jameis Winston for nothing 0:10:25.200 --> 0:10:28.200 in New Orleans. That's a good point. And you're right, 0:10:28.440 --> 0:10:30.680 and he's made a lot of money. Yeah, that's a 0:10:30.720 --> 0:10:34.240 great point. So one million dollar deal New England, I'd 0:10:34.240 --> 0:10:36.640 say the best. I bet that's a Vega's favorite. What 0:10:36.720 --> 0:10:40.480 do you think, Well, I don't. Somebody's Jacksonville is gonna 0:10:40.480 --> 0:10:43.360 bring in somebody. Do you bring in Andy Dalton to 0:10:43.559 --> 0:10:47.280 help Gardner? Minshew? Do you bring in Cam Newton to 0:10:47.480 --> 0:10:52.520 maybe challenge Gardner? Minshew? I don't. I don't know. I'm 0:10:52.559 --> 0:10:56.560 just I'm not quite sure where somebody lands. Here is 0:10:56.559 --> 0:11:00.240 one a starter and one of Jamis realizes you will 0:11:00.280 --> 0:11:03.920 be a starter if you're smart as a backup quarterback 0:11:03.920 --> 0:11:07.840 in New Orleans. Cam at his stage in his career, 0:11:08.320 --> 0:11:10.600 I don't you may have to go in as a backup. 0:11:11.600 --> 0:11:13.840 I mean truly go in as a backup and then 0:11:13.880 --> 0:11:17.880 wait for your chance. And maybe you have Ryan Tannehill situation. Yeah, mcclub. 0:11:18.840 --> 0:11:21.360 What about a team like that's a contender that wants 0:11:21.360 --> 0:11:23.560 to high end backup, he's our quarterback, gets hurt a lot, 0:11:24.480 --> 0:11:26.839 or like I don't even even in Kansas City. Somebody 0:11:26.840 --> 0:11:30.280 who wants insurance that, you know, four games out and 0:11:30.280 --> 0:11:33.240 we're gonna win a Super Bowl? Who did Kansas City 0:11:33.280 --> 0:11:37.559 have they have? Like Matt Mato, Yeah, Matt Moore, Yeah, 0:11:38.080 --> 0:11:40.280 it takes a lot of contact. If I'm Andy Dalton, 0:11:40.320 --> 0:11:42.040 I look to grab a ring. He's got a lot 0:11:42.080 --> 0:11:44.360 of money. He goes to a situation, go to the 0:11:44.360 --> 0:11:46.520 Baltimore Ravens, and I know they've got a very great 0:11:46.559 --> 0:11:48.439 young quarterback that runs a lot and gets hit a lot. 0:11:48.720 --> 0:11:50.560 You may get in there and you have a great 0:11:50.600 --> 0:11:54.880 team around you. Pick up a ring. Yeah, I think 0:11:54.880 --> 0:11:57.360 he's got to go into a system that will fit him. Though. 0:11:57.800 --> 0:11:59.960 It's one thing you know with Carson Wentz you had 0:12:00.080 --> 0:12:02.000 Nick Foles who came in, and Nick Foles, they didn't 0:12:02.000 --> 0:12:04.720 have to really alter the system. If Andy Dalton would 0:12:04.720 --> 0:12:06.599 go in, Lamar Jackson got hurt, Now you got to 0:12:06.679 --> 0:12:09.120 change your system a little bit. There. This program brought 0:12:09.120 --> 0:12:11.400 to you by Legal Zoom. No matter what happens, you 0:12:11.440 --> 0:12:13.920 want to take care of your loved ones. And that's 0:12:13.960 --> 0:12:15.800 why Legal Zoom has made it easy to set up 0:12:15.800 --> 0:12:17.960 the right estate plan without leaving your home. Take care 0:12:18.000 --> 0:12:20.120 of your family today with the right estate plan at 0:12:20.200 --> 0:12:22.559 legal zoom dot com. All right, I got way ahead 0:12:22.600 --> 0:12:25.360 of myself because Paulie and I got into this conversation 0:12:25.440 --> 0:12:27.920 about the Packers and what if they had traded for 0:12:28.000 --> 0:12:30.400 DeAndre Hopkins. Let me tell you the guest list here, 0:12:30.480 --> 0:12:33.520 Roy Williams, North Carolina head coach, get his thoughts on 0:12:33.559 --> 0:12:37.199 the Michael Jordan documentary because Roy is the one who 0:12:37.240 --> 0:12:41.560 recruited Mike to North Carolina. Michael Wilbon, he'll join us 0:12:41.559 --> 0:12:44.440 to talk about the back and forth between the Pistons 0:12:44.440 --> 0:12:47.880 and the Bulls. Doug Gottlieb on the new G League 0:12:48.480 --> 0:12:51.480 as some of these high school players deciding that they're 0:12:51.520 --> 0:12:53.800 just going to go to the G League. John Calipari 0:12:54.240 --> 0:12:56.600 came out and said, you know, these kids, thousands are 0:12:56.600 --> 0:12:59.280 going to be disillusioned here. And I don't agree with 0:12:59.320 --> 0:13:01.680 that because there's only a few that are going to 0:13:01.720 --> 0:13:07.200 get paid two hundred and fifty three four hundred thousand dollars. Therefore, 0:13:07.559 --> 0:13:10.240 it's supply and demand. How many are coming in. Not 0:13:10.360 --> 0:13:12.679 everybody gets to go in. You might want to go 0:13:12.760 --> 0:13:15.320 in It's just like the NBA draft when they were 0:13:15.360 --> 0:13:18.280 letting high school players, you know, declare for the draft. 0:13:18.840 --> 0:13:22.760 There's only so many teams and only so many roster spots. Hey, 0:13:22.840 --> 0:13:25.560 I'm going to declare for the draft. And then you 0:13:25.640 --> 0:13:28.720 realized nobody's going to draft you. If you want to, 0:13:28.760 --> 0:13:30.679 declare to go to the G League instead of going 0:13:30.720 --> 0:13:34.480 to UCLA or Auburn or wherever. Some of these top players, 0:13:34.720 --> 0:13:38.600 these are really elite players. The number one player in 0:13:38.679 --> 0:13:43.480 high school basketball is not going to college. He's going 0:13:43.520 --> 0:13:45.959 to go to the G League and he's going to 0:13:46.040 --> 0:13:48.360 make money. He's going to get a shoe. These are 0:13:48.400 --> 0:13:50.720 all the things that I thought would be smart for 0:13:50.760 --> 0:13:52.680 the G League if you could do it. As long 0:13:52.720 --> 0:13:55.280 as the NBA was okay with this, I don't worry 0:13:55.280 --> 0:13:58.720 about the NCAA, worry about the NBA if you go there, 0:13:59.000 --> 0:14:02.320 and I actually, hell, it's like a gap year. They're 0:14:02.440 --> 0:14:04.640 kids in high school who have a gap year to 0:14:04.720 --> 0:14:08.600 get ready for college. That's all this is. Now. I'm 0:14:08.600 --> 0:14:12.320 going to pay you to come in and understand what 0:14:12.440 --> 0:14:15.240 life is like when you go to the NBA, because 0:14:15.240 --> 0:14:18.600 those players are going to get drafted. They don't get 0:14:18.640 --> 0:14:22.800 the platform the stage like Zion Williamson say goodbye to 0:14:22.880 --> 0:14:26.320 Zion Williamson. I mean that that's not happening anymore. I 0:14:26.360 --> 0:14:29.760 think it'll be rare if a kid comes out and 0:14:29.880 --> 0:14:32.480 you know, unless you know, we have the high schoolers 0:14:32.480 --> 0:14:35.120 can go right to the NBA. If I'm in their 0:14:35.160 --> 0:14:38.040 position and I can make three hundred thousand, four hundred 0:14:38.080 --> 0:14:41.880 thousand dollars, you can do this. Go in, I get 0:14:41.920 --> 0:14:44.320 a shoe deal. Adidas is going to come in and say, 0:14:44.320 --> 0:14:46.560 I got your shoe deal. When you go to the pros, 0:14:46.840 --> 0:14:48.960 you get locked in early. Hey, by the way, we're 0:14:48.960 --> 0:14:53.120 going to help you with things like investments, stocks, real estate, 0:14:54.720 --> 0:14:58.440 simple simple things that you might not be ready to do. 0:14:58.560 --> 0:15:02.240 You're not getting that in college. And I've said before, 0:15:02.320 --> 0:15:03.880 if I go to college and I'm only going to 0:15:03.880 --> 0:15:07.160 play basketball for six months, the university should just say, 0:15:07.480 --> 0:15:10.280 how about I make you a better person. We're gonna 0:15:10.360 --> 0:15:14.360 use you, you use us. You know, let's pull back 0:15:14.360 --> 0:15:18.000 the curtain here. We're gonna talk to Greg Sanky, the 0:15:18.120 --> 0:15:22.520 SEC commissioner, because now these players can they can capitalize 0:15:22.520 --> 0:15:28.640 on their likeness. Man, it's a gray area here because 0:15:28.760 --> 0:15:30.800 I don't know what the rules are I don't know what. 0:15:31.160 --> 0:15:33.280 Like let's say if a booster says, I got a 0:15:33.280 --> 0:15:36.040 card dealership, I'm gonna pay you a hundred grand to 0:15:36.040 --> 0:15:40.280 come down and spend Saturday's autographing in the off season. 0:15:41.520 --> 0:15:43.760 You could say that to a recruit, Hey, you want 0:15:43.760 --> 0:15:46.520 to go there because you know what that booster you 0:15:46.640 --> 0:15:49.040 get this, Like, I don't know what you're allowed to get, 0:15:49.160 --> 0:15:51.880 what is permissible? And do you know that Jim Trussell 0:15:52.400 --> 0:15:54.680 under these rules would not have been fired at Ohio 0:15:54.720 --> 0:16:01.680 State because you can't capitalize on your stardom, your likeness. 0:16:02.280 --> 0:16:04.920 You know, those kids traded in their stardom at Ohio 0:16:05.000 --> 0:16:08.160 State to get tattoos. Jim Tressell lost his job because 0:16:08.160 --> 0:16:12.800 of that or partially because of that. But I don't 0:16:12.800 --> 0:16:16.720 know what you can actually do now. The NCAA would 0:16:16.760 --> 0:16:18.920 love this to happen, so then they don't have to 0:16:18.960 --> 0:16:22.000 be under that microscope that says are you going to 0:16:22.040 --> 0:16:25.040 pay your players? Why aren't you paying your players? Now 0:16:25.080 --> 0:16:26.920 they can say, hey, you can capitalize in your likeness. 0:16:26.960 --> 0:16:29.600 Like Johnny Manzel would have been able to sign those 0:16:29.640 --> 0:16:32.000 autographs and he would have gotten paid and nobody would 0:16:32.000 --> 0:16:34.760 have had a problem with it. It's the things. How 0:16:34.760 --> 0:16:37.480 do you It's like you have to tell the irs 0:16:37.560 --> 0:16:40.960 everything you're doing, because if they find out that you 0:16:41.000 --> 0:16:43.560 didn't tell them, then you got trouble. It's like with 0:16:43.640 --> 0:16:46.240 the NCAA, we want to know what you're doing it's 0:16:46.240 --> 0:16:48.920 above board. Because we find out that you're not above board, 0:16:49.000 --> 0:16:51.640 then we're going to have a problem with this. And 0:16:51.680 --> 0:16:55.520 I also want to ask Greg Sanky, does college football 0:16:55.640 --> 0:17:00.320 need a commissioner, not a president like Mark Emritt, somebody 0:17:00.320 --> 0:17:03.280 who is a commissioner. And maybe Greg Sankey is the 0:17:03.360 --> 0:17:07.040 de facto commissioner because he runs the SEC, so we'll 0:17:07.240 --> 0:17:09.480 talk to him. Doug Gottlie will join us later, Michael 0:17:09.480 --> 0:17:12.920 Wilbon and the North Carolina head coach Roy Williams. We'll 0:17:12.920 --> 0:17:14.800 have a pole question, stat of the day, play of 0:17:14.800 --> 0:17:17.640 the day, all of those things coming up. Now. I'm 0:17:17.680 --> 0:17:22.280 fired up, all right. Fritzie's here, mclovin's here, Seaton's here, 0:17:22.720 --> 0:17:25.359 and we'll have all of those things. You can watch 0:17:25.359 --> 0:17:27.679 on YouTube dot com slanks to the Dan Patrick Show. 0:17:28.320 --> 0:17:30.240 You can dialle us up page seven seven three DP 0:17:30.359 --> 0:17:33.360 show anything else that I missed here. We started out 0:17:33.800 --> 0:17:35.560 right out of the gates here because We just picked 0:17:35.640 --> 0:17:37.720 up the conversation that Paul and I were having an 0:17:37.800 --> 0:17:41.080 ugly day outside dan ugly, it's pouring, doesn't matter. There's 0:17:41.080 --> 0:17:44.639 sunshine in here. You sunshine in here, baby. Every day 0:17:44.680 --> 0:17:48.320 It's the super Bowl eighteen.

Once again, the 0:18:09.600 --> 0:18:12.600 Bengals have released Andy Dalton. I don't know if it's 0:18:12.600 --> 0:18:14.639 a shock but a little bit of a surprise. I 0:18:14.640 --> 0:18:16.560 didn't know if they would keep him there as a 0:18:16.640 --> 0:18:19.919 cushion for Joe Burrow for one year. We'll keep an 0:18:19.920 --> 0:18:22.399 eye on where Andy Dalton. Mayland will come up with 0:18:22.440 --> 0:18:25.080 a pole question, mclovin, do you have one before we 0:18:25.080 --> 0:18:27.399 get to the Commissioner of the sec. Well, maybe we 0:18:27.480 --> 0:18:31.960 want to wait till after the commissioner to ask my NCA. Okay, 0:18:32.240 --> 0:18:35.040 let's bring in Greg Sankey. He's the Commissioner of the SEC. 0:18:35.280 --> 0:18:38.680 He took over that title in twenty fifteen. Fritzie, how 0:18:38.680 --> 0:18:41.520 do you have an Ohio state jersey on with the commissioner, 0:18:41.600 --> 0:18:44.639 the SEC and all? Honestly, I just grabbed a jersey 0:18:44.640 --> 0:18:47.000 that I'd be comfortable in sitting here in the house. 0:18:47.440 --> 0:18:49.879 They should have realized that that was a poor decision 0:18:49.920 --> 0:18:51.600 on my point, but it was not something that was 0:18:51.640 --> 0:18:54.480 not taking a shot of course, the bow with the commissioner. 0:18:54.600 --> 0:18:57.600 Sorry about that, commissioner, Sorry about that. When are the 0:18:57.640 --> 0:19:02.040 performance evaluations I'd like to have? I'd like to have 0:19:02.080 --> 0:19:11.680 some input. What sports are you watching now? None? How's 0:19:11.720 --> 0:19:15.000 that I'm watching replays of games I attended. I actually 0:19:15.000 --> 0:19:19.359 watched the CFP National Championship game a couple of nights ago. 0:19:19.440 --> 0:19:22.159 I've been there, and you know, you've been to enough events. 0:19:22.160 --> 0:19:25.040 When you're at the event, you don't watch the event. 0:19:25.240 --> 0:19:27.680 You're in the same way. So it was fun to 0:19:27.720 --> 0:19:32.119 actually go see what I thought happened compared to what 0:19:32.200 --> 0:19:35.400 actually did happen. We won. What kind of told did 0:19:35.440 --> 0:19:41.399 March Madness not being played have on the SEC? Well, 0:19:41.520 --> 0:19:43.800 you know there's a financial impact to put that aside. 0:19:43.920 --> 0:19:46.440 The most emotional moment for me was having to make 0:19:46.480 --> 0:19:50.000 a recommendation to our presidents and our chancellors that we 0:19:50.119 --> 0:19:53.600 cancel our men's basketball tournament. If you'll recall back in 0:19:53.640 --> 0:19:57.400 two thousand and eight, we had a basketball tournament interrupted 0:19:57.440 --> 0:20:00.320 by a tornado and we set up all night. We 0:20:00.400 --> 0:20:02.520 made it through. Georgia ends up winning and they had 0:20:02.520 --> 0:20:05.440 finished in the bottom half of our standings. And one 0:20:05.440 --> 0:20:07.560 of those moments for me, and nobody knew who I 0:20:07.640 --> 0:20:10.080 was back then, I was an associate commissioner. I'm walking 0:20:10.080 --> 0:20:12.240 down a hallway and there's a Georgia player holding the 0:20:12.280 --> 0:20:15.520 trophy walking towards me, saying over and over, this is 0:20:15.560 --> 0:20:17.280 the best day of my life. And that's one of 0:20:17.320 --> 0:20:21.440 those moments where the tickets, the TV, the attendance kind 0:20:21.440 --> 0:20:23.640 of goes by the wayside and you realize the importance 0:20:23.680 --> 0:20:27.480 of competition. So not being able to play hurt in 0:20:28.119 --> 0:20:30.040 a very different way. And then the rest of the 0:20:30.119 --> 0:20:33.800 month I would call a celebration. That's the enjoyable part 0:20:33.800 --> 0:20:36.320 of the job to see teams compete. You know, last 0:20:36.359 --> 0:20:39.800 year Auburns run to the final four was really enjoyable, 0:20:39.880 --> 0:20:42.720 and you hope for a national championship South Carolina I 0:20:42.760 --> 0:20:44.800 think would have been the number one ranked Grimmin's team, 0:20:44.880 --> 0:20:49.640 so we had an opportunity to win, which is always 0:20:49.680 --> 0:20:52.280 part of that fun. We'll get to the NCAA in 0:20:52.320 --> 0:20:54.959 a moment. But what kind of plan. It feels like 0:20:55.000 --> 0:20:59.399 every league, every commissioner, there's alternative plans here. There are 0:20:59.400 --> 0:21:03.480 alternative of plans for college football in the fall. M 0:21:04.040 --> 0:21:07.080 that's the conversation. You know, are you there? Sure is 0:21:07.119 --> 0:21:10.320 that the focus, No, the focus is on preparing to 0:21:10.440 --> 0:21:15.239 play as scheduled Labor Day weekend. I think that's an 0:21:15.280 --> 0:21:20.119 important message publicly. I think it's important for our student 0:21:20.160 --> 0:21:25.080 athletes to hear from me that we're focused on that preparation. Now. 0:21:25.080 --> 0:21:27.879 Whether or not we can make that happen, that's going 0:21:27.960 --> 0:21:31.080 to be up to the circumstances around the virus. But 0:21:31.520 --> 0:21:36.439 no football, you know, football with no fans not something 0:21:36.480 --> 0:21:38.439 I have to decide right now and not high on 0:21:38.520 --> 0:21:42.439 my priority list for thinking about now. Whether whether the 0:21:42.480 --> 0:21:46.080 fan patterns look different, that's that's another question that again, 0:21:47.080 --> 0:21:49.119 we've learned a lot in the last thirty to forty 0:21:49.119 --> 0:21:51.080 five days. We're going to learn a lot more in 0:21:51.119 --> 0:21:53.639 the next forty five days. And we've got you know, 0:21:54.080 --> 0:21:55.919 a little over one hundred days to the start of 0:21:56.040 --> 0:21:58.840 what would be football season as scheduled, and that old 0:21:58.840 --> 0:22:01.320 guide how we make those decisions. But I wonder if 0:22:01.320 --> 0:22:04.280 you have students on campus, then do we have Is 0:22:04.320 --> 0:22:07.879 there a correlation between that students on campus fans in 0:22:07.920 --> 0:22:11.159
